Il Giornalino di Gian Burrasca is an Italian novel by Vamba (aka Luigi Bertelli).
It was first published, between 1907 and 1908, in sequential installments in the children magazine Il giornalino della Domenica, and in 1912 it was published in book format. Set in Tuscany and partly in Rome, the book is written in a diary form, the diary of Giannino Stoppani, nicknamed "Gian Burrasca" ("Johnny Tempest") because of his exuberant and restless behavior. The author Vamba also cured the illustrations of the book.
The novel got a large audience success among the young readers, and was adapted in a number of works, notably two film adaptations in 1943 and in 1982, and a popular RAI TV-series starring Rita Pavone in the title role in 1964.
